Warranty Policy

At Vaja we try our best to make goods that you can use every day, and enjoy for a long time, we understand that your leather good will be with you almost 24/7, jumping from your hands to your pocket or bag, and again back to your hands. We know thats something that needs to support your everyday hazards, thats why we only use the best of the best materials available and we encourage you to take care of your Vaja goods and treasure them, as you do with your best pair of shoes. As you know using the same pair of shoes everyday will wear them down faster, so they may need a small repair or clean now and then.
We are also part of the human being, thus we are not perfect, if you are one of those unlucky ones which received a faulty product with an unintended manufacturing defect, or something breaks within the 6 month period, please contact us immediately via support@vajacases.com so we can determine what has happened and find a solution.

Warranty repairs

We offer warranty repairs on almost all our products. If you are one of the unlucky ones that need to repair your Vaja goods within the 6 month warranty period, please email us at support@vajacases.com.
Repairs are done at our main factory in Argentina, once we receive the product back from you, it will take something between 2-4 weeks to get the product repaired depending on the issue. Sometimes all that needs to be done is a small simple stitching repair which can be done at your local leather repair store.
Sometimes due to the vast color and leather selection offered under our customizable goods section, we might not have the same leather/color available to make a repair, thus we may have to use a different color that may not match your original product 100%.

Repairs Outside Warranty

We offer a repair service if something breaks outside the 6 month warranty. If you think that the repair needs our specialists please contact us at support@vajacases.com with pictures of the problem and we will send you a quote for the estimated repair cost and shipping.
Please note that once we receive the product back it will take around 4-6 weeks for the repair. (If the product is over 6 months old we may have to use a different colour leather/thread/materials that may not match your original product 100%.)
We know that it might be pretty hard to live without your beloved leather good for a few weeks, sometimes all it needs is just small simple stitching repair which can be done quick and easy by a local leather repair shop.
If you are not quite sure what to do, send us a picture and we can let you know how it can be repaired locally or if it has to go on a recreation trip to Buenos Aires.
